Molecular electronics describes the field in which molecules are utilized as the active
(switching, sensing, etc.) or passive (current rectifiers, surface passivants) elements in …

Grafting organic molecules onto solid surfaces can transfer molecular properties to the solid.
We describe how modifications of semiconductor or metal surfaces by molecules with …

Surface-modification of TiO 2 is found to be a powerful tool for manipulating the fundamental
optical and photoelectrochemical properties of TiO 2. High surface area nanocrystalline TiO …

Basic scientific interest in using a semiconducting electrode in molecule‐based electronics
arises from the rich electrostatic landscape presented by semiconductor interfaces …

Molecules in (or as) electronic devices are attractive because the variety and flexibility
inherent in organic chemistry can be harnessed towards a systematic design of electrical …

A new method for the detection of nitric oxide (NO) in gas phase is based on a combination
of acidic gas scrubbing, oxidation, and conductivity measurements using a chemically …

A new sensitive gas sensor based on a self-assembled monolayer field-effect transistor
(SAMFET) was used to detect the biomarker nitric oxide. A SAMFET based sensor is highly …

This article examines a somewhat counter-intuitive approach to molecular-based electronic
devices. Control over the electronic energy levels at the surfaces of conventional …

Nitric oxide (NO) acts as a signal molecule in the nervous system, as a defense against
infections, as a regulator of blood pressure, and as a gate keeper of blood flow to different …

Dipole formation processes at self-assembled monolayers of benzene derivatives
chemisorbed on the Si (111) surface are investigated from first principles. The surface dipole …
